First Days at School
Cerys started kindergarten (or reception, as it's called in the UK) on Monday, and Addien started preschool. In an effort to save our planet from carbon emissions, as well as our pocketbooks from the rising cost of fuel, we are riding bikes to school. I came home for the morning with just Macy and didn't know what to do with myself. I just walked through the house a few times, wondering at the quiet, and then turned the radio on for the first time in four years only to discover that I do not like Christian radio. But I digress. Cerys is loving her mornings at school. Addien enjoyed her first morning at pre-school and will do her second today. And Macy savoured being in the house with just her mommy with no big sisters to steal her toys, push her over, or tell her what to do. I got a little bit teary when I saw Cerys in her uniform for the first time, and last night I had a little bit of a panic that this is it, I now have a child in school and I don't get a do-over with her first four years, but that quickly passed, and I think I will really enjoy this next phase of life.
